On this page, you’ll also find information on how on many delegates are at stake and how each party awards them. If you want to view the Washington Republican primary page, click here.

Caucus Type
The Washington Democratic caucuses are open. Any registered voter who wants to participate in the caucuses as a Democrat may do so. Additionally, people may register to vote on the day of the caucus and then participate as Democrats.

Delegate Award MethodologyDemocrats
Pledged delegates (101) are awarded proportionally based on statewide and district level vote totals. A 15% threshold is in place for all delegates. This means that a candidate must win at least 15% of the vote in a district or statewide election to be eligible for any delegates. Washington is also allocated 17 superdelegates which are not pledged based on the caucus outcome.
